Ceiling/Isulation System

Insulation removal.JPGIn May of 2006, we undertook the first of two major summer renovations, the replacement of our ceiling insulation system on courts 5 & 6. We first had to tear down all the existing insulation, and performed that task in house. We then hired Commercial Retrofit out of Michigan come in and install the new insulation.

This was done with 2 forty foot boon lifts and a competent crew.Tarps and plywood were laid down the entire court to avoid damage. The entire job took 7 full days, and came in ahead of schedule, in time for the USTA season.

This was a significant upgrade to our facility. The insulation is hung much tighter, will not flake, will remain hole free, and better reflects light making these courts brighter and more evenly lit. Special thanks to the entire Commercial Retrofit crew as well as Dickey, Sam & Frank.
